However, with English established as the primary language for global academic writing and communication, authors from these countries often find it difficult to understand and navigate the journal submission process when trying to get their work published in top international English-language journals. This is where a manuscript submission readiness check can act as a great tool for researchers to minimize desk rejection and maximize the chance of publishing success.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_68 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/researcher.life\/blog\/article\/manuscript-submission-readiness-tools-esl-researcher\/#How_manuscript_submission_readiness_checks_can_work_for_you\" title=\"How manuscript submission readiness checks can work for you\">How manuscript submission readiness checks can work for you<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/researcher.life\/blog\/article\/manuscript-submission-readiness-tools-esl-researcher\/#Manuscript_submission_readiness_checklist_for_smart_researchers\" title=\"Manuscript submission readiness checklist for smart researchers\">Manuscript submission readiness checklist for smart researchers<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/researcher.life\/blog\/article\/manuscript-submission-readiness-tools-esl-researcher\/#What_does_R_Pubsure_do\" title=\"What does R Pubsure do?\">What does R Pubsure do?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_manuscript_submission_readiness_checks_can_work_for_you\"><\/span><strong>How manuscript submission readiness checks can work for you<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As an ESL (English-as-a-second-language) author, even if you have conducted groundbreaking research and been published in your first language, your work is unlikely to be recognized unless it is published in an international English-language journal. Top journal editors look for a well-written manuscript that follows ethics and publication best practices and suits the journal\u2019s scope, all of which are challenging tasks for ESL authors. In fact, in a global survey, 76% of researchers found the manuscript preparation stage difficult, 60% had problems in selecting the right journal for their work, and 31% said they found it difficult to ensure compliance with ethical guidelines for academic publishing.<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>A thorough pre-submission check then becomes an essential step to avoid rejection, which, a study on submissions from 18 countries revealed, can range from 22.6% to 73.4%.<sup>2<\/sup> Evaluating your manuscript\u2019s submission readiness with checks for language quality, references and citations, ethical compliance and declarations, accuracy, and completion allows you to eliminate flaws that could lead to desk rejection. It also helps you assess how well your scientific data is presented through visual elements, while checking for consistency in numbers, data, symbols, measurement units, and text and illustrations used in your manuscript.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/researcher.life?utm_source=contentmarketing&amp;utm_medium=r-blog&amp;utm_campaign=manuscript-submission-readiness-tools-esl-researcher\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4508 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.researcher.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Banner-2_Write-and-Publish.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.researcher.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Banner-2_Write-and-Publish.png 640w, https:\/\/blog.researcher.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Banner-2_Write-and-Publish-300x65.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manuscript_submission_readiness_checklist_for_smart_researchers\"><\/span><strong>Manuscript submission readiness<\/strong><strong> checklist for smart researchers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several things to consider before submitting your manuscript, and impressing journal editors and reviewers can be a daunting task, especially for early career and ESL researchers.
